It\u2019s a fun little site to poke around on. But, since this is just a recreation, there\u2019s no actual functionality you can incorporate onto your computer. As the RITOS About page states, you just \u201cpoint &amp; click &amp; watch. There are no goals nor wrong thing to do here. It\u2019s just a mindless site.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It may be mindless, but it\u2019s also a faithful recreation of the LCARS system as depicted not just in <em>Star Trek: Lower Decks<\/em> but also in <em>The Next Generation<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/140729\/why-deep-space-nine-is-the-best-star-trek-series\/\"><em>Deep Space Nine<\/em><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/72899\/what-were-watching-lets-watch-star-trek-voyager-again-to-remember-janeway\/\"><em>Voyager<\/em><\/a>. Users can click around into various displays that show crew quarters, a ship map of the <em>Cerritos<\/em> (the Federation starship in <em>Lower Decks<\/em>), JWST (James Webb Space Telescope) images, and a Sick Bay screen. There are plenty of fun things to click on and little easter eggs to uncover for dedicated <em>Trek<\/em> fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LCARS is the fictional computer operating system used by Starfleet starships in several Star Trek TV shows and films.
